I thank Senator Di Natale for his question. I reiterate my statement in response to the previous question: the government remains firmly committed to the Middle East peace process and to a durable and resilient two-state solution that allows Israel and a future Palestinian state to exist side by side within internationally recognised borders. I acknowledge Senator Di Natale's question, but I am not in the habit of discussing my conversations with international counterparts in public.
